Yes, but inspired by Raidho. Picture of work nearing completion.

Nice work on the speakers and stands :ok_hand:

Many thanks James, I had a lot of fun and there was plenty of head scratching to make two curved panels and get both exactly the same to form a perfect pair. They are actually not rigid, and on reading about Raidho stands neither are they. So the stands begin to behave like isolation platforms. Speakers need a sub though, which can also be seen in the picture.

Congrats :+1:. Good work!

I vote that those who wish to discuss and air their dirty laundry start a new thread

Raidho stands are from metal, aluminium, right?

Neat Neat Neat :blush:

Yes FR, Aluminium I think. Mine are not of course. Only the straight tube on mine was metal. The rest is curved MDF I formed over a wooden former to get the shape the same twice.

Let’s see those 808s please

Today I have got a record player back in my life after 35 years without. So far, it is a real joy to me.

Hmm. I have what’s left after “friends” borrowed some, and then a divorce meant I lost my Led Zep and Pink Floyd collections amongst many others. All sold by my ex about five years ago. Still I’ve enough to be going on with and 2nd Mrs. G. brought her own into the mix.

All in all I have around 70 albums left out of 400ish. But life is too short to worry about all that now. Onwards!
